<< I would also venture to guess that "running out of fuel" may me much more
complex than just running out of fuel. If there is an electrolyte
imbalance, then the body may not be able to effectively use the fuel
present. At a distance clinic I attended several years ago Jeannie Waldorn
said the difference between a 50 mile horse and a 100 mile horse is
metabolics soundness. The ability to store fuel is a metabolic issue but
it is one very small factor that makes up the metabolic soundness of the
horse. And I don't believe that metabolic soundness is just simple as
throwing a few grams of carbos into the horses feed at the vet check.

Wouldn't you rather actually know than simply harbor a mere belief? Maybe
you're entirely right, Truman. A few of us are about to find out.
